Filament Quality

Please document what you like and/or dislike about the filament you used today on the spreadsheet located near the DMS Filament Stock.

If you are using your own filament and want the type/color to be considered for a future DMS purchase, please include the Vendor you purchased it from. You may also wish to include a randomly generated tracking number (http://random.org) to make labelling and tracking which spools of filament you are 'grading' easier.

This information from that spreadsheet will be copied to an [Online Spreadsheet] and to the chart below at least once per week to allow members to view it online at their convenience.
